The Internet is acting up again

I've noticed that the internet tends to act up nearly every weekend. If it's not intermittent, it can be completely unusable. Today, it’s the latter, so I’ll just wait until it comes back before I start working. I can't complain too much since it's provided for free by my landlord. I just hope it returns before evening so I can complete some tasks online. My data plan is running low; I've already consumed over half of it this week. I need the internet for thorough research and other tasks.
Right now, I’m just browsing MyLot. I just finished eating brunch, which was fish. After I drink my tea, I plan to take a rest since I'm still feeling unwell. I will drink lemon-infused water later and I will probably add some pure organic honey. Happy weekend, guys!

I had that issue a couple of days ago because I had consumed all the data.

Do you regularly purchase data for your phone?

@freelancermariagrace Oh yay!! We have you back on myLot!! Thank you. It's going okay. I'm just not getting things done in a timely manner with this cold weather. Low of 29F last night. But we have sunshine all day long and I'm heading out to take care of the animals now.

I am still feeling unwell, but I have no choice but to return home tomorrow. It will be a six-hour journey from here to my parents' house. Haha

I hope you get a strong internet signal now. it is really hard if you will just rely on data, it consumed easily and its kinda expensive. I know how it feels.

Yes, the internet connection has been okay these past few days. Haha. I'm not sure when the tenants will be back next weekend. Take care :)

Since you're paying the rent and the it comes with a fee internet connection, I think you have the right to complain. But not really complain to the landlord but you could suggest that he reports it his ISP so it could be fixed. Not unless the reason why it's acting up is because his subscription is too low and too many people are using it.

I will try to tell it to him next time. He might be using a basic internet subscription, which can slow down when many people are connected.

i hope you feel better soon
i had similar situation at my place and in dorm - internet works fine most of the time, but when there were too many people connected to it, it was really slow and it was barely working. that might be the thing, specially on the weekends when people have more free time

Yes. Maybe they stay home during weekends, which is why the signal becomes intermittent or nonexistent. It could also be the internet provider. I'm not sure, but I'm grateful for the free Wi-Fi. :)

Lemon-infused water with honey is perfect for winter. My friend, who lives in a cold country, drinks it nearly daily during the winter season.
